The development of farming machinery and digital technology that is able to generate objective information about the status of the soil, water, crops, pasture and animals is quickly changing the way in which farming b

Automating surface irrigation systems can deliver both improved efficiencies in labor and water use.

The importance of black root rot in cotton has increased to the point that it can determine if a field could be planted or not with the crop.

Over the past 25 years soil carbon sequestration has been assessed in many experiments.

CottonInfo’s cotton nutrition

tour hit the road in February 2016, bringing 10 leading cotton nutrition researchers onto farms

across five cotton growing valleys.

The cotton sector is a leader in farm WHS because growers have used evidence-based information to develop practical and effective systems to manage WHS.

CRDC recognises that people are the cotton industry’s greatest resource. We continue to invest

in the capacity and capability of people through many programs, designed to build a skilled,

The aim of this research was to improve nitrogen use in irrigated cotton by looking at how farmers around the world are improving Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE), and to identify what management tools and practices farm

Over the last 22 years the Australian cotton industry, through the CRDC and Cotton CRC, have actively invested in the dissemination of research information to growers and the broader community.

The purpose of this travel sponsorship was to attend and present the researchers findings at the 6th Congress of European Microbiologists (FEMS Federation of European Microbiological Societies), Maastricht, the Nether

Management of soil organic carbon (SOC) is necessary for sustainable agricultural development.

The project successfully captured interactions between cultivar (genetic) x season (environment) x field management x post processing (ginning) variables.

The colour of cotton fibre is affected by plant genetics, environmental factors, harvest and processing conditions.

The cotton plant derived a large proportion of N nutrition from the soil organic pool (up to 70%) which is composed of N sourced from previous fertiliser application and the soil N pool that has built up over the mill

In response to many inquiries about EM38 technology, either from those who came to an industry field day (as part of the Irrigation Technology Tour Feb 2015) or who have spoken with someone else who attended, Departme

Diseases of Cotton XI project aimed to increase Australia’s biosecurity preparedness through

early detection by completing annual disease surveillance on commercial cotton farms,

This travel scholarship provided funded for the researcher to present the major findings from the researchers PhD to the European Conference on Sustainability, Energy & the Environment 2015.

In recent years, the high level of activity required on-farm for cotton growers has resulted in a lack of time to network, both within the Dawson Valley and with growers and contacts outside the Valley.

The winter edition of CRDC's magazine, Spotlight, investigates the issue of big data and the evolution from precision agriculture to decision agriculture.

The 2016 Australian Cotton Production Manual is a critical reference tool for cotton growers: a one-stop-shop of on-farm cotton production information.
